## What is a Face Match API?

A Face Match API compares two facial images and determines the similarity between them to support identity verification workflows.

[Explore API Documentation](https://docs.deepvue.ai/reference/forensics/face/face-match-v2)

This API is commonly referred to as

Face Match APIFace Comparison APIFace Compare APIFace Authentication API

Organizations use this API for

onboarding verification workflows

comparing user selfies with ID documents

authentication and login support

validating user-submitted images

The **Deepvue Face Match API** helps automate face comparison workflows and reduce manual verification efforts.

## Why Face Matching Matters

Identity workflows often rely on comparing a user’s face against a reference image such as ID documents, stored profile images, or onboarding photos. Manual verification is not scalable and prone to errors.

Manual face verification is

time-consuming

error-prone

difficult to scale

The Face Match API enables

real-time comparison workflows

improved accuracy

faster onboarding experiences

Two images in. Match result out.

AI-powered face comparison with confidence scoring — in milliseconds.

## What This API Enables

The Deepvue Face Match API enables organizations to:

Compare Two Facial Images

compare two facial images

Support Identity Verification

support identity verification workflows

Automate Authentication

automate authentication processes

Standardize Face Comparison

standardize face comparison workflows

Real-Time Verification

integrate real-time verification into applications

## How the API Works

A four-step workflow from image submission to match result.

01

Submit Images

Submit two images (photo\_a and photo\_b) through a secure API request as part of a consented user interaction or onboarding workflow.

02

Analyze Features

The API analyzes facial features and patterns.

03

Compute Score

A similarity score is computed.

04

Match Result

A match result and confidence score are returned.

The match result and confidence score can be integrated into onboarding, authentication, or identity verification workflows.

Compare faces in real time.

Submit two images, get a match result with confidence scoring — instantly.

## Consent & Data Handling

Face comparison workflows are designed for user-consented and lawful verification processes.

Face comparison workflows are intended to be used within **user-consented and lawful verification processes**, such as onboarding and authentication.

Images submitted to the API are expected to be:

user-provided inputs

part of consented workflows

Deepvue provides infrastructure for processing and comparison and **does not independently collect or initiate capture** of facial data.

## Developer Preview

See how a single API call compares two facial images and returns a match result.

API Request

POST /v1/kyc/face-match

{
  "photo\_a": "<image>",
  "photo\_b": "<image>"
}

Input Parameters

photo\_a

image — first image (jpeg/png/pdf)

photo\_b

image — second image (jpeg/png/pdf)

API Response (Simplified)

{
  "data": {
    "match": true,
    "confidence": 100
  }
}
